Refer to Figure B.1b.
4. Circuit Breaker
– Protects machine from damage if
maximum output is exceeded. Button will extend
out when tripped (Manual reset) Refer to Figure B.1b.
5. Gun Trigger - Activates welding output, wire feed,
and gas solenoid operation. Releasing the trigger
deactivates welding and simultaneously activates
the
“ burnback ” function so that the welding wire
does not stick in the weld puddle.
● No external shielding gas is required when used
with Lincoln Innershield

.035 ” (0.9 mm) NR-211-
MP electrode.
● Accommodates both 4 ” (100 mm) diameter and 8 ”
(200 mm) diameter spools of wire.
WELDING CAPABILITY
The WELD-PAK 3200HD is rated at 90 amps, 19
volts, at 20% duty cycle on a ten minute basis. It is
capable of higher output currents at lower duty cycles.
LIMITATIONS
Arc Gouging cannot be performed with the WELD-
PAK 3200HD. The WELD-PAK 3200HD is not recom-
mended for pipe thawing or TIG welding.
CONTROLS AND SETTINGS
Refer to Figure B.1a.
1. Control Power ON/OFF Switch

fan motor will run and air will be
exhausted out the louvers in the
front of the machine. The weld-
ing output and wire feeder
remain off until the gun trigger
is pressed.
2. Wire Speed Control —
Controls the wire feed speed
from 50
– 300 in /min (1.3 –
7.6 m/min). The control can
be preset on the dial to the
setting specified on the
W E L D P A K 3 2 0 0 H D
Application Chart located on
